About: Your home or mine, I'd love to snuggle, walk and play with your fur baby while you're away! I work remotely and have flexible availability throughout the day to pop in for visits, long walks, or even overnight stays. I have experience caring for senior pets (both cats and dogs) who may need some extra care like medications, extra potty breaks, mobility support or extra love for separation anxiety. I'm super comfortable with large breeds or high-energy pups, so whether they are 10lbs or 110lbs, they're in good hands! I'm a remote worker with a flexible schedule. Available for drop-ins, daily walks and/or overnight stays. Happy to care for your pet(s) at your place or mine. Happy to care for your pet(s) at either your place or mine. I live in a pet-friendly home with plenty of space, and a large fenced in yard for potty breaks and play time. No kids or other pets, just lots of love and attention for yours! I'm comfortable walking up to 2 large, leash-trained dogs at a time and have experience with all kinds of energy levels. For Cats: Due to my husband's allergy, I’m not able to host them in my home—but I’m more than happy to stop by yours for visits! I’ll clean litter boxes, refresh food and water, and offer all the cuddle and play time they’ll allow. You’ll receive regular photo and text updates while you’re away, and I’m happy to help with little extras like grabbing the mail or watering plants so you can truly relax on your vacay know your pet is in good hands!
“Erin responds very promptly and is open with her availability! i have a big german shepherd so im always picky with who i look through to walk him, but she’s amazing. She’s great with dog body language and sensed my pup wanted to go back out real quick and took care of him. I definitely look forward to more walks with her in the future!”
“Scarlett loves her walks with Elizabeth! She provides a warm hand off and helpful chat to those new to Rover. Scarlett is definitely looking forward to future walks and wags!”
About: I've had 22 years of experience living with and loving black labs in south Minneapolis. I can accommodate dogs of any age. I love to be outdoors and enjoy walking. My work week is full; however, I am fully available on the weekends to dote on your pup. I am a teacher. From mid-August to mid-June my weeks are full. My weekends are open. I'm available over holidays. I am also available throughout the summer. I have a small home with a fenced-in yard and a park within blocks. For the past twelve years, I had a dog, and we walked every day. I greatly miss my companion and would love to shower your dog with lots of love and care.
“Regina has been walking my dog three days a week for about a month now and she has been amazing. She’s reliable, responsible, on time and communicative. She’s also been flexible when my schedule has unexpectedly changed. I’ve never had to trust someone else with my dog before so I was a bit nervous hiring a dog walker, but Regina has been a huge help and I’m so glad I found her. I would definitely recommend Regina for your pet care needs.”
About: Fifteen years of paws-itively amazing experiences! I've had the joy of caring for everything from tiny terriers to towering Great Danes, and have even had the thrill of training a hunting dog. Currently, my life is happily ruled by a very regal cat, so I understand the unique charm of our feline overlords too. Friends know me as the one who inevitably ends up surrounded by their pets at gatherings – there's just something special about connecting with animals, its like I speak their language. Whether your companion is a social butterfly or a wallflower, I offer experienced, loving care tailored to their individual needs. I have the flexibility to tend to your animals needs whenever you need the help with advanced notice. I prefer to have advanced notice of three days so that we can schedule a meet and greet. I am happy to attend to your animal's needs by dropping in and even house sitting when the occasion calls. Once we are acquainted on the app, I will schedule a time with you to have me drop by to learn your routine, familiarize myself with your fur baby, and ensure that I am the match you are looking for. Once caring for your fur baby I make time in my schedule according to your established routine to come by and tend to their needs. While tending to them I like to talk to them, play with them, provide cuddles, and ensure they are properly socialized while you are gone according to your wishes.
“Summer was timely, kind and responsible with our dog Piper’s walk! She sent picture updates and Piper was very happy and relaxed when we came home. We’ve already asked her to come back again!”
“Brian is such a lovely and dependable person! He walked our dog Fitzgerald while I was out of town for two weeks - and we were so happy how much he cared for him and the daily updates. Thank you so much Brian, we would definitely want to work with you again!”
“Shawnara is GREAT! She’s been available every time we request her for walks and goes above and beyond! Our Moss loves her and it’s nice to be able to go with the same person. Will always request her 1st! 10/10 recommend!!”
“Alex is an absolute star. I know Henry is in the best hands when he’s with Alex.”
“We are so grateful for Emilie. She is caring and detail oriented—the ideal person to look after our senior dog. Having her help has been a big relief when we need someone to stop in and take care of Lela.”
About: I worked at a doggie daycare for 2 years, assisting with some light grooming, puppy playtime, individual walks, and medication administration. I've been petsitting on Rover for about 6 years. I work a hybrid office job (4 days at home, one day in Downtown Minneapolis), so I'm happy to stay in your home during the day. I always have evenings and weekends free for walks and in-house care. I am available to do light house cleaning, watering plants, getting mail, etc--whatever you need done while you are away from your home. My family has had dogs my entire life, from fostering a teeny Yorkie puppy to golden retrievers, a hound mix that loved to talk, and my mom's sweet senior german shepherd who still likes to swim every day. I do best with high energy dogs, but I enjoy a quiet stroll with an older pup too.

“Karen loves animals and has had her own pets (both cats and dogs) over the years. She seems to get as excited to see them as they are to see her, and she has hosted several friend's dogs over the years while they were out of town. She has also checked In, fed, and spent significant time with our cat while we've been out of town, which is important to us because our kitty gets anxiety when we're not there. She shows a ton of care towards all animals and enjoys getting outside and exploring neighborhoods with dogs! Highly recommend contacting Karen!”

“Lynnea is the kindest animal lover I know, other than me! she recently lost her Dudley. A black lab. She is not ready to jump in yet with a new one, so I think this is the most beautiful way to still have connection to our beautiful fur babies! She will treat every animal she cares for with the same love, kindness and respect as if they were her own.”

13. Alexis S.
“I cannot recommend Alexis enough! She cared for my four cats while I was away for an entire month, they were happy and healthy when I returned home. Alexis went above and beyond, visiting often to clean all five litter boxes, refill food and water, and spend quality time with my cats. My cats are usually very shy around new people, but Alexis was patient and gentle, giving them the time and space they needed to feel comfortable. On top of her incredible care for my cats, Alexis also watered my plants, which was a huge help. It’s obvious she has a genuine love for animals of all kinds, and her attention to detail and kindness made all the difference. I would absolutely trust Alexis to pet sit for me again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, caring, and dedicated pet sitter!”
